Premium Floor Tile Without the Premium Price Tag
At Daltile Outlet, we help homeowners, contractors, and designers find high-quality floor tile at outlet pricing—without sacrificing durability, design, or performance. As an independent tile retailer, we specialize in sourcing surplus, discontinued, and hard-to-find tile styles, including products manufactured by Daltile Marazzi and American Olean.
Floor tile plays a critical role in both the function and aesthetic of a space. Whether you’re remodeling a kitchen, upgrading a bathroom, or outfitting a commercial property, the right floor tile can elevate the entire environment while standing up to years of wear and tear.
Why Floor Tile Remains One of the Most Popular Flooring Choices
Floor tile continues to grow in popularity across residential and commercial construction—and for good reason.
Key Industry Statistics
- Tile flooring accounts for over 28% of all hard surface flooring installations in the U.S. (Floor Covering Weekly)
- Porcelain tile is rated among the top three most durable flooring materials, outperforming vinyl and laminate in lifespan
- Homes with tile flooring in kitchens and bathrooms see higher resale appeal, particularly in warm-climate markets like Arizona
Tile’s resistance to moisture, scratches, and stains makes it a go-to option for high-traffic areas.
Types of Floor Tile You’ll Commonly Find at Our Outlet
Because our inventory is sourced through surplus, overstock, and discontinued channels, selection changes often—but typically includes:
Porcelain Floor Tile
Porcelain tile is fired at higher temperatures, making it:
- Denser and less porous
- Highly resistant to water absorption
- Ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways
Many porcelain tiles today replicate the look of wood, stone, or concrete while offering superior durability.
Ceramic Floor Tile
Ceramic tile offers:
- Excellent design variety
- Cost-effective pricing
- Easy maintenance
It’s a popular choice for homeowners seeking stylish flooring on a budget.
Wood-Look Tile Flooring
Wood-look tile has surged in popularity due to:
- Realistic plank textures
- No warping or moisture damage
- Longer lifespan than hardwood
This style is frequently found in surplus runs due to trend changes, making it a prime outlet find.
Floor Tile Applications by Space
Kitchen Floor Tile
Tile is ideal for kitchens because it:
- Handles spills and heat
- Cleans easily
- Holds up under heavy foot traffic
Large-format porcelain tiles are especially popular for modern kitchens.
Bathroom Floor Tile
Slip-resistant finishes and moisture resistance make tile the industry standard for bathroom flooring.
Living Areas & Open Floor Plans
Modern tile designs allow seamless transitions from kitchen to living space, creating a cohesive look throughout the home.
Commercial & Light Industrial Use
Tile’s durability makes it suitable for:
- Retail spaces
- Offices
- Restaurants
Multi-family properties
Why Outlet Floor Tile Costs Less (Without Cutting Corners)
Outlet pricing does not mean lower quality. In most cases, savings come from:
- Discontinued manufacturer collections
- Overstock from large commercial projects
- Packaging or pallet quantity changes
- Style refreshes and seasonal rotations
These tiles are often identical in material and performance to those originally sold in traditional showrooms—just without the markup.
Tips for Buying Floor Tile from an Outlet
1. Buy Extra Material
Because outlet inventory is limited, always purchase 10–15% extra to account for cuts and future repairs.
2. Check Dye Lots & Calibration
Even premium tile can vary slightly between production runs. Our team can help you review consistency before purchase.
3. Ask About Use Ratings
Not all tile is rated for every application. Floor tile should meet PEI and slip-resistance standards.
4. Think Long-Term
Choose neutral tones and classic patterns if longevity matters more than trends.
